Personal matters
My name is Markus Bergmann and I run my Shiatsu practice in Hart near Arnoldstein, close to Villach.
My passions include singing, dancing, playing the drums, travelling, karate, as well as technology, computer games and good TV series.
In my younger years, I often felt frustrated, demotivated and at a loss.
In 1998, I went to London with the band I was in at the time. There, I met some inspiring people who had a lasting impact on my life and whose influence remains with me to this day.
Through these experiences, I discovered a new connection with nature and spirituality. Today, I can say with conviction that I lead a happy and fulfilling life.
I live with my cat Blacky in Hart near Fürnitz and am delighted to be able to support people on their personal journey with Shiatsu.
My path to Shiatsu
For many years I myself was accompanied by a body therapist. This experience touched me deeply. I experienced first-hand how healing mindful touch, inner stillness and conscious body awareness can be.
This experience gave rise to the desire to follow this path himself.
Today, I help people to achieve better health, inner balance and joie de vivre. In addition to my Shiatsu training, my work also incorporates influences from bioenergetics, Qi Gong, karate, sound healing and meditation.
I tailor each treatment to the individual. Together we work on releasing tension, clearing blockages and releasing new life energy.
Training courses that I have completed:
Traditional methods: Gua Sha, Moxa, Ohashiatsu, special meridians
Thematic focus: Back, neck & shoulder girdle - spine - digestion - hips - lungs, fascia treatment
Advanced bodywork: Psychology & Shiatsu - Facial diagnosis
Modern approaches: Alchemy of Bodywork (Basic treatment, Dirk Oellibrandt) - Energetic osteopathy in Shiatsu (Thomas Dinter)
